We all know that the GRE is a timed exam. However, when first starting your quant prep, you shouldn’t worry about speed. Instead, your initial priority should be correctly answering questions.

Moving too quickly will lead to careless mistakes, disorganized thinking, and a loss of focus. When your brain is processing information more quickly than it should be, you are almost certain to make mistakes. Therefore, it makes sense to work at a slower pace, enabling you to comfortably understand new information and answer questions accurately.

As you accurately answer questions and develop confidence and knowledge, you will naturally get faster at answering questions.
